Tóm tắt

Since opening in 1868, Wells College has remained remarkably the same in several respects. It is a very small college with close, familylike ties among members of the academic community; 1 the setting in Aurora, New York, continues to be rural, with the college situated in a village of fewer than a thousand people on the eastern shores of Lake Cayuga, twenty miles from the nearest small city, Auburn; the curriculum is traditional liberal arts, with education as the only preprofessional program; and the college is still a women's college. And yet Wells is different today from the college that students of just thirtyfive years ago knew. Today's students are no longer predominantly wealthy, and many more belong to racial and ethnic minorities. Admissions are less selective, student retention is a matter of concern, and the college seems less up-to-date, as no new buildings have been constructed on campus for about thirty years, although some have undergone renovations. Such changes pale in comparison to the major change the board of trustees announced in October 2004: Beginning in fall 2005, men students would be admitted. © 2006 Vanderbilt University Press.
